It's fantastic. They're well-designed games but I am admittedly a bit biased. I grew up on this series and played with my closest friends for hours on end during the weekends.
The addition of several changes, such as "Adventure Mode", has really turned the game into something special and has given it ENORMOUS replay value. It already had it but this extended it nicely.
It's a blast, especially with other people. Give it a go! Seriously!
Yeah it's good. And there's a new content patch coming out in a couple of weeks that are adding more stuff, which will be put onto the console version as well at some point.
I play the PC version and that's where I'm staying, but the console version should be just as good.
Reaper of Souls and the Loot 2.0 update and all the other patches and updates they've created since release have taken Diablo 3 from being a good game with some serious flaws to an amazing game with one big flaw.
I was never on the Diablo 3 hatewagon. Even before all the big changes I still enjoyed the game, but the changes they've made have been enormous. The massive amount of loot with Loot 2.0 is awesome and you're getting legandary items like crazy, whereas in my fist playthrough I only got a couple in dozens of hours.
Reaper of Souls is a fantastic expansion as well. The new Act is the best part of the game, because it has a ton of events, great loot and an incredible soundtrack. It also adds some other things like Adventure Mode, which yes I know people have mentioned before in this thread :P. There's a lot to love with what they've done with it.
My only problem with the game at this point is simply the level progression. To Blizzard's credit, they've done what they can to tweak the system, but in order to truly fix it they'll need a game overhaul... which ain't happening. What I mean by this is that it's stupid that we have no control over how our character progresses up until the level cap. Sure, you can switch your abilities around but that's so lightweight it's silly. They've got ways to up your stats once you level cap, but it only eases the pain a little bit, because at that point you aren't getting new skills when you level up so it's still very minor.
But I do love Diablo 3. I put probably 150 hours into it before I quit, and just yesterday I considered breaking it out again but my brother wasn't feelin' it so we didn't.
